Blocked Bio-Based Carboxylic Acids and Their Use in Thermosetting Materials
The invention introduces bio-based polyfunctional carboxylic acids, which are chemically “blocked” by reaction with vinyl ether compounds, resulting in liquid vinyl-ether-blocked carboxylic acid derivatives that are compatible with epoxy resins. When these blocked acids are blended with vegetable-oil-based epoxy resins and thermally cured,...
